Explanation:
Es un término que aparece muy poco. Según he visto, es un desacomodamiento (a veces con giro) de la lente implantada, que tiene forma de hélice debido a las patillas centradoras (http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q="lens implant"&btnG=... a veces denominadas "limbs". Estas son las referencias pertinentes que encontré:

• "Imperfect implant position occurred in 40% of cases and inadequate early fixation resulting in propellering or rotation in 16%."
(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/4022564)

• "... in order to prevent movement or “propellering”."
• "... to avoid “propellering” of the lens following placement."
(http://books.google.com/books?id=4tlL5-iZOZoC&pg=PA186&lpg=P...

• "lens mobility (pseudophakodonesis) of an undersized or poorly fixated intraocular lens (tilt-
ing, rocking, or rotating [propellering])" (http://www.v2020la.org/pub/PUBLICATIONS_BY_TOPICS/Cataract/I...

• "... an introcular lens design which resists propellering, which can occur where conventional introcular lenses are too small." (http://www.google.com/patents?id=-UEsAAAAEBAJ&pg=PP3&lpg=PP3...

• "With superior limb fixation, there is no propeller effect from lenses that may not be of the proper size." (http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4409690.html)

En cuanto al término "pseudophakodonesis", la definición es la siguiente:
"Excessive mobility of an intraocular lens implant." (http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/omd?pseudophakodonesis)

Y tiene el siguiente equivalente castellano:
Seudofacodonesis: movimiento excesivo por un implante de lente intraocular. (http://www.iqb.es/diccio/s/se.htm)

aunque también lo escripen con "p" inicial (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=pseudofacodone...

Atentamente,

daniel
